Ha--I just visited their site, too! I plan to place an order, probably for the hamburger buns, the cinnamon bread, and one of the white breads (haven't made up my mind yet).

Thanks sansglutengrl, and welcome! :)

I just ordered a mixed case of things from Chebe bread.com, I tried one of their mixes and I'm a loyal customer for life! And you save a lot online with them too if you order a bigger case that's not mixed, I just wanted to try everything! They use tapioca flour, they have pizza dough and bread mix and cinnamon mix and focaccia and just wow..... It's in a little red bag at a lot of health food stores if you want to try just one. And they're really fun to make too, you have to use your hands to knead the dough.

Does anyone know if any of these companies mentioned has yeast-free gluten free breads? I cannot have yeast either. I know there are some gluten free, yeast free cinnamon buns that are also low fat. I need to go back and check them out. It was either at the gluten free mall or the Gluten Free Market. I am pretty sure it was the last one.

Hi NoGluGirl :)

There is a great gluten-free cookbook--"The Gluten Free Kitchen" by Roben Ryberg.

In it, she uses potato and corn starches instead of grain flours. Her bread recipes include yeast, but she says that's only for taste, and all the recipes can be made without the yeast.

I've made the pizza crust, and the cinnamon bread, and they were both good.

The only ready-made yeast-free bread I've seen is from Ener-g.

I'm going to make a smart a$$ed comment and say that a gluten-free, yeast free cinnamon "bun" sounds more like a ROCK than anything else. Personally I won't spend a lot of time looking :lol::lol::lol:

Sorry, it's what just popped out of my head this early in the morning. :P

I have found that I really don't like Jillian's or Kinnikinnick at all, probably because I'm spoiled, but Glutino makes a truly righteous bagel and flax seed bread. So if you see those in the freezer department, go for it.

I was pleasantly surprised when I bought some gluten-free frozen bagels at the Organic Store awhile back. I've taken to slicing them in three and toasting them rather than just in half because they're so dense. But the taste is pretty good. I'll keep an eye out for the flax seed bread.

I second the glutino flax bread and bagels.

You can make your own tapioca based bread buns, google 'brazillian cheese bread'.

I also use it for pizza crust.

Ener-g bread was about the only gluten free bread available 29 years ago. (The only way to eat is heated with lots of butter and maple syrup.) There were not the assortment of mixes available either when I went gluten free.

Isn't that the truth! that was our only choice for many years.. My oldest and I ate it every day!

Now I have tried just about every bread on the market.. and there are some wonderful choices.. and Delicious baked goods.. I should give up a few ;) it might help me knock off a few pounds!

Dear jerseyangel,

The Ener-G rice bread is the one I get when I can afford it. Our little health food store is the only one who carries it. I wish I had a toaster. I miss toasted bread. Sandwiches taste better toasted to me. I would love a big stacked club sandwich! This bread really just tastes like rice. That is definitely better than some of the others I have tasted! And those were the ones with the yeast!

The potato flour is what they use for the Lieber's gluten free cake mixes. They are great! I think one of the supermarkets nearby has it. I used a mix of soy and rice flour for my blueberry muffins, and they turned out well! I should make some of those again!

Dear JerryK,

I can never resist throwing a comment out like that when the opportunity strikes either! :lol: It just is not in my nature to hold back when I have a sarcastic remark. You must be a Sagittarian too. We cannot help ourselves. If we keep it all bottled up inside, we could explode! :P

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

you are really funny Jerry! thanks for the laugh.

I really like Pamela's Wheat Free bread mix, it's incredible in my opinion. For my daughter's sandwiches I get the EnerG Light Tapioca loaf. you have to microwave the slices for about 20 seconds or so to soften them, then make your sandwich, but she loves it. Texture of wonderbread to me.

I'm yeast-free, too. Kinnikinnick has two varieties of yeast-free bread.

NGG, spring for a toaster ... it's not much more expensive than a gluten-free loaf of bread!

Dear CarlaB,

Thanks for the bread info. I have been eating the Ener-G rice bread. The toaster is not doable unless my parents buy it. Right now, thanks to be defrauded, I have a -$115.70 in my account.

It is so depressing. I could use the oven, even though it will take longer. My parents probably will not buy even a cheap toaster, considering they do not even care to keep glutening me. How am I supposed to heal? I am paranoid careful, but still manage to be glutened. The other day, I told them I have not worn make-up in six months and need some gluten free make-up. They are like "We can't afford that!" It is amazing how Dad can afford to buy an $85 antique fountain pen, or that they could afford going out to eat and to the movies last night. That is just crap!

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Yes this summer, I've decided to forgo lawn and house maintenance in lieu of baking. I mean my wife always says I'm "just wandering around outside"

anyway, so why not just let it go? I mean why spend the only two hours of free time I have available to mow the lawn, when there are so many different types of gluten-free free bread to make?? (Is my sarcastic tone coming thru over the net?)

...

Jerry - I was at my local spring garden show this weekend, and I thought of you :D . They have a new product on display called "Synlawn" - it's synthetic turf, in various varieties and lengths. Hey, no more hours of mowing the lawn!! Just think of what you could do in your spare time...

He'd probably try to mow it anyway just to get out of baking :P

Jerry- I'm SO sorry that you had the EnerG bread encounter. It is truly frightening.

See if you can find yourself some Gillian's or Chebe. Yes- it (the Chebe) will have to be cooked but it's easy. No, really I swear, I would never lie to you. It's VERY VERY manly bread :rolleyes: I hear in Brazil the men believe that if they bake it, their wives think them alluringly macho. :P

I too have heard that rumor about Brazilian men and their tapioca bread...

Don't they even make a frozen (and much more masculine) version of Chebe? I think if you get the frozen stuff all you have to do is open the package and heat it up. No stirring or mixing involved...

Dear Mtndog,

I always knew those Brazilian guys seemed more attractive than others! Now I know why! :lol: Men who bake are very attractive! You don't see Todd English looking wimpy! Real men bake bread! :lol:

LOL Jerry! You are so right, some of the bread is awful!

Do you have a Whole Foods near you? Their 'gluten free bakehouse' sandwich bread is pretty good. A little crumbly, but tasty.

I've had some decent gluten free english muffins - I can even get my little ones to eat those.

Good luck - I've definitely had my share of awful substitutes..

i got through the first bag of Ener-g by loading it up with pepperoni and cheese and grilling it in a mound of butter... then the second bag went in my hurricane preparedness kit, since it was good until about 2030. ;)

...for boarding up your windows?

The Cravings Place makes a yeast free mix, (gluten, potato, wheat, nut, egg, and dairy free too) Surprisingly not taste free. There are a bunch of recipes on the back to make different types of bread/muffins. The pumpkin was delicious. It's called Create your Own quick bread and muffin mix. They have a cinnamon crumble coffeecake that makes up great muffins. I use those for a quick breakfast on the go. Several people have mentioned Chebe. They have a Cinnamon Roll-up mix that is yeast, gluten, casein, lactose free. I haven't found anything pre-made that tasted halfway decent except Ener-g tapioca dinner rolls *improved* At least they realized improvement was needed.

      @Neat1, I so glad you're going to try Thiamine! Do let us know how it goes. Benfotiamine is the form of Thiamine that may be very helpful to you. Benfotiamine has been shown to promote healing in the intestines. Be sure to take a B Complex because all eight B's work together. Try to get a minimum of 300 mg a day of Benfotiamine. Higher doses...

      Hi @matts Yes.... it's a mystery to me why we are holding onto that 'o'.   I expect it won't be there in 100 years! I think you are very wise to go back to your GP to chat through your options.   If you would like to know one way or another, he or she may be happy for you to see a gastroenterologist through the NHS.   If not, and you would still like to know and can afford it, you could do what my friend did,  She went direct to a consultant at our local private hospital to have an endoscopy.  Her situation was different from yours in that she did not test positive, but she did have gastric symptoms.  Her Dad was a coeliac and she wanted to be sure she wasn't one of a small number of coeliacs that don't ever test positive in the blood test, but do have villous damage in their gut. I do hope things work out well for you - perhaps drop by and give us an update sometime! Cristiana

Thank you for the article, as you said with the family history it is probably correct that it should be investigated further. I’ll contact my GP on Monday and ask for further investigation, as you said I know they aren’t massively over the normal limit but must be a ‘normal’ range for a reason and if it’s come back above it then it needs looking at!  I’ll continue my diet as is for now so then if I do have further tests then they should be accurate results. Thanks again, Matt

      Hi @matts Welcome to the forum. I'm a coeliac living in the UK.  I have a hunch you may be posting from the UK because of the way you spell 'coeliac.'  Our American friends, quite sensibly in my opinion, drop the 'o'! Anyway, if so the UK, 'satisfactory' blood tests mean as follow: 'Satisfactory. Take no action - This means that the doctor has looked at the results and deemed it to be very close to the normal range for the test and the result is not concerning. Some patients have consistently abnormal results that are 'normal' to them.'  Source: https://www.nrmc.nhs.uk/test-results#:~:text=Satisfactory.,are 'normal' to them. Now,  I have annual/biannual blood tests and get a few blood tests that consistently hover just above normal limits, and they come back with that typed next to them.  The doctors can look back at my records and see that the readings are normal for me. However, under your particular circumstances I would definitely request to be sent to a gastroenterologist.  Because although your GP considers your blood tests are satisfactory, i.e. just outside normal limits, they ARE nevertheless outside normal limits and you do have a first degree relative with Coeliac Disease.  I am no doctor but I would say this gives sufficient grounds for investigation, especially if you have been experiencing any gastric symptoms,  or seemingly unrelated things like headaches, tingling extremities, or tiredness - the symptoms of coeliac disease vary enormously from individual to individual. Also, may I ask you, have you been consuming gluten with most meals in the past few weeks prior to your blood test?  For a positive blood test,  coeliacs need to consume the equivalent of about 2-3 slices of gluten containing bread a day over a six to eight week period.  Because if you don't eat much gluten, you may not be reacting much.  Bear in mind that if you do go forward for further blood tests or an endoscopy, you will need to keep eating gluten. If it turns out you are a coeliac, in the UK a coeliac diagnosis will entitle you to all sorts of important NHS health monitoring and support, which in the long-term even if you are feeling well now, could be very beneficial to your health.   One other reason it would be good to know one way or another, is because if you turn out to be a coeliac, you will need to take the diet extremely seriously.  It can at times be a bit restricting, as you mother I am sure will tell you.  And gluten free substitutes can be expensive - my gluten-free pasta, my gluten-free chocolate biscuits, my gluten-free bread adds pounds to my weekly shop!!

Chronic sinus infections are common in Celiac Disease.
